That's the point. From what I understood at the time he wasn't so impressed with F1 in general as he just wanted to race and wasn't prepared to change as much as the teams wanted. Mind you, considering one of those teams was Stewart and Jackie Stewart would take all new F1 drivers to Silverstone and show them the "correct" way to drive the circuit perhaps half of that was on the team side.

If he'd been able to perform (in terms of outright speed), I doubt he'd have only done twenty-odd races, no matter how cavalier he was about F1.

His record speaks for itself. 1 point in F1 only. That was a 7th in Monaco in the Stewart.

That doesn't sound too bad, until you realise his teammate was 2nd in the same race.

stats for Stewart in that season were so bad, that the 2nd for Barrichello is the "odd" data point, not Magnusson finishing 7th. well that and the fact that both cars actually finished (quite rare), in a race where more than half retired.

also put me down for Ross ousting the guy at Fezza somewhere mid-season

Swap Button for Di Resta asap.

DTM streams live these days.

It's all well and good Dennis being back but what about the car, it's rubbish and that points to the head of designer who seems like his got his feet under the table as the car has got progressively worse over the last couple of seasons and he's still there?
